If this is something you need to run only once at boot time, it is very simple. If you have a directory /etc/rcS.d/ (i.e., a fairly new sysvinit), place a script in /etc/init.d/ and put a symlink to it in /etc/rcS.d/ like the others that are there. Set the number to something appropriate. Read /etc/rcS.d/README for information on this. If you don't have this directory, place a script in /etc/rc.boot/ . The scripts there are executed in alphabetical order at boot time. Remco -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
